I forgot to add that it is my understanding that there will be an opportunity to audition to attend the Russian Bolshoi at the Intensive. They also pick one high school aged boy and girl to be awarded a full scholarship to attend the Bolshoi. My daughter is too young for that honor and not yet good enough. If her age group gets to audition I told her to do so....the worst that will happen is they say no. I couldn't afford to send her there unless she did have a scholarship. It's very expensive. But free if you one lives in Russia and one qualifies.
